The study presents the first to characterize novel Erucastrum canarianse Webb and Berthel (or Can ) sterile cytoplasm-based CMS lines in Indian cauliflower ( Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.) and investigating their commercial suitability. Eleven Can -based CMS lines were examined for 12 agro-morp...
